# Dataset Card for Chinese National Pentatonic Mode Dataset
The raw dataset includes audio recordings and annotations of five modes of Chinese music, encompassing the Gong, Shang, Jue, Zhi, and Yu modes. Musical pieces collected are mostly composed in pentatonic (five-note) scales, with some of them being hexatonic (six-note) and heptatonic (seven-note) scales. The total recording number is 287 with the average duration being 179.5s.

### Dataset Summary
The expanded dataset is integrated into our database, and each data entry consists of seven columns: the first column denotes the audio recording in .wav format, sampled at 22,050 Hz. The second and third presents the name of the piece and artist. The subsequent columns represent the system, tonic, pattern, and type of the musical piece, respectively. The eighth column contains an additional Chinese name of the mode, while the final column indicates the duration of the audio in seconds.

### Supported Tasks and Leaderboards
MIR, audio classification

### Languages
Chinese, English

## Usage
```python
from datasets import load_dataset

dataset = load_dataset("ccmusic-dabase/CNPM", split='train')
for data in dataset:
    print(data)
```

## Maintenance
```bash
GIT_LFS_SKIP_SMUDGE=1 git clone git@hf.co:datasets/ccmusic-database/CNPM
cd CNPM
```

## Dataset Creation
### Curation Rationale
Lack of a dataset for Chinese National Pentatonic Mode

### Source Data
#### Initial Data Collection and Normalization
Weixin Ren, Mingjin Che, Zhaowen Wang, Qinyu Li, Jiaye Hu, Fan Xia, Wei Li, Monan Zhou

#### Who are the source language producers?
Teachers & students from FD-LAMT, CCOM, SCCM

### Annotations
#### Annotation process
Based on the working idea of combining manual labeling with a computer in the construction of the World Music Database, this database collects and labels the audio of five modes (including five tones, six tones and seven tones) of "Gong, Shang, Jue, Zhi and Yu". At the same time, it makes a detailed analysis of the judgment of Chinese national pentatonic modes and finds application scenarios and technical models, which can provide raw data for the analysis and retrieval of Chinese national music characteristics.

#### Who are the annotators?
Teachers & students from FD-LAMT, CCOM, SCCM

### Personal and Sensitive Information
Due to copyright reasons, only some of the audio can be released directly. This part of the audio is the Shang mode and Jue mode tracks performed by professional performers. The rest of the audio needs to be searched and downloaded by the dataset user from music platforms such as Kugou Music, NetEase Cloud Music and QQ Music, based on song titles, artists and album names.

## Considerations for Using the Data
### Social Impact of Dataset
Promoting the development of the music AI industry

### Discussion of Biases
Only for Traditional Chinese Instruments

### Other Known Limitations
Only for Pentatonic Mode

## Additional Information
### Dataset Curators
Weixin Ren, Mingjin Che, Zhaowen Wang, Qinyu Li, Jiaye Hu, Fan Xia, Wei Li.
